How to remove and insert your SIM card

After activating your SmartLess Mobile plan, you’ll need to remove your old SIM card from your prior carrier (if it is no longer going to be used) and insert your new SmartLess Mobile SIM. 

If you haven’t activated your SIM Kit yet, please complete Activating your SmartLess Mobile SIM Kit first. 

What’s in your SmartLess Mobile SIM kit 

  • SmartLess Mobile SIM card 

  • SIM ejector tool 

  • SIM adapters (if your phone requires a different size) 

Steps to remove or insert your SIM card  

Step 1: Power off your phone 

Turn off your device to avoid damage and connection issues.

Step 2: Eject the SIM tray 

Gently insert the SIM ejector tool into the small pinhole next to your SIM tray. The tray should pop out easily.

Step 3: Remove your old SIM card 

Before removing your old SIM from the tray, take note of its orientation. Carefully remove your old SIM from the tray.

Step 4: Check your SIM size 

Make sure your new SIM fits your phone. Use an adapter from the kit if needed.  

Step 5: Insert the new SIM card 

Place your SmartLess Mobile SIM in the tray, aligning the notched corner correctly.  

If you're using an eSIM instead, proceed to Step 6 

Step 6: Re-insert the SIM tray 

Gently push the tray back into your phone until it clicks into place.  

Step 7: Power on your phone 

Turn your phone on and follow any on-screen prompts. Your SmartLess Mobile service is now ready to use.
